What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Rubbing on the front liner a little bit, so i popped them out real quick and I'll deal with it later. It's been sunny and warm, so I'm not too concerned with not having the liner in right now. I wanted to be able to dedicate some time to seeing what the cleanest way to move it forward is.

 

Today I had to adjust the setting on my Hypertech speedometer calibrator. I had originally punched in the stock TRD tire size going to 295/70/18, but today on the highway my speedometer was reading 60, but gps was saying 58. After some quick math, got it dialed in, but ended up having to punch in 33.6" for the tire diameter. I checked my speedometer with a gps before installing the Calibrator, and it was dead on, so a little weird what my configuration ended up at, but my speedometer is dead on again.

 

Make sure you do several layers the more on the easier to peel

 

Thanks, I did 4 layers, I just think I taped it off wrong. Need to try it again like joonbug showed.

 

Oh wow...I guess I will try more layers too. Thanks for the tips.

 

I have been away for a little bit. But I just recently had my 7 inch BDS Suspension Lift installed and a bullbar.





*EDIT* Also plastidipped the chrome hood bulge, outer grille shell, and Toyota badge.

 

For those of you that wonder what my tinted taillights look like at night here is an updated picture. To include each step. It was well worth it.

 

I know I've asked this before I can't seem to remember lol


Am I going faster with my 35's now than my speedometer shows? If so, I assume it's not a substantial difference?

 

Yes, you would be going faster than your speedometer shows. What was your old tire size?

 

If you went from stock TRD tires 275/65/18 to 35's, you would be going around 65mph when your speedometer says 60.

 

Agree with @PNW-Tundra on that.

 

Hey Joe I'm pretty sure that's correct. You are going a little faster than Speedo. Not enough to really worry, I want to say it's 2-6 mph more than speedo. Not positive but I think that's what I remember.

 

what he said.

and if you want to figure it out again in the future or decide to go to 37's in a few weeks. check out the link below

You just want me to go to 37's so I can sell you new tires at 50% off again.....haha

 

Was able to find a few minutes to install a few things that have been waiting.


Bed rail mini shovel mount





Bed rail fire extinguisher mount




New underseat fire extinguisher

 

programmed this and had it cut. love it so far.

 

Where did u get them?

 

Are those keys cut for your Tundra? How much did it cost?

 

yep, it's for the tundra. Key was $30 on ebay. I paid $2 to have it cut and programmed the remote and immobilizer chip myself with TechStream

 

That's taking your Tundra to the next LEVEL. For a minute looks like your driving a luxury car....haha

 

The flip key remote feels like OEM quality. It has nice heft, key flips with authority, buttons are nice and firm, fit&finish are perfect. We'll see how long it lasts...

 

Lets see it flipped out and in the ignition

 

Was the programming difficult?

 

The programming is very easy if you have techstream and a mini VCI cable.

 

Yeah I have it. Did you use instructions?

 

No instructions, but I can help you out if you haven't done it. There are also some youtube videos I think.

To program the chip in the key, you choose Immobilizer from the techstream menu. Then on the left hand menu under 'utility' you can program the chip.

For the keyless remote programming choose Main Body ECU. Again select 'utility' on the left and add a remote.

Just follow the on screen instructions for both programming sequences.

PM me if you want more detailed info or search youtube, I remember there being some videos but I haven't checked in a long time.

 

Where did you get the bed rail fire extinguisher mount. That's trick. Or did you fabricate it?

Is there a panic button? If not that would be perfect. My son likes to run around pushing my panic button.
